After gaming for some time, something is happening to my computer, causing my fps to get really low. Even if I close the game and restart it, the low fps issue remains. If I restart the computer, my fps go back to normal. I've tried formatting my pc, updating my bios, checking for virus/malware, using Intelligent standby list cleaner and I don't know what to do anymore. I play only 3 games, and it does happen in everyone of them (Apex, Dota2 and Witcher 3). I recorded a video in the same place on witcher 3, showing when it is normal and when it is bad, you can see that there is no thermal problem or lack of memory.
The only clue I got was in logs made by GPU-Z (link below): When the issue is on, my GPU Clock is locked in 1936MHz and I get a PerfCap Reason constant at 4. After restarting the computer and running the game with good FPS, my GPU Clock and PerfCap Reason both varies.
Could this be a hardware issue? My GPU was sent to EVGA RMA and they returned another unit for me. The thing is I must discard any other reason for the problem before sending it back to warranty because I live in Brazil and the RMA process takes something like 2 months.
